When is the last time you were in a water balloon fight? On Aug. 16, 2011, Christian Fellowship students organized the largest water balloon fight, a world record. The 8,957 students throw 175,141 water balloons. Watch the video.

Overcoming the internal conflicts that are in all of us is the overwhelming theme from Jars of Clay’s new single, “Two Hands.”

The band will bring its “Two Hands” tour to Colorado this week, playing in Grand Junction on Wednesday and the Denver area’s Gothic Theatre on Thursday.

The “Two Hands” chorus resounds, “I use one hand to pull you closer, the other to push you away,” and resonates in all of us, especially our daily relationships.

“Two Hands is about that inter wrangling that we all do,” said guitarist Stephen Mason said. “We struggle to believe that we can do good. We question if we have what it takes – to follow through. And the truth is we don’t. If that makes sense? But if we rely on our faith, we are able to reconcile.

“And we have to try. Don’t worry about the consequences or doubt. We all have that. We are human and will always have that but we need to push through that. One human can make a huge difference in another and in a community.”

I’m a Denver Post sports copy editor, who covers Christian music in my spare time. I’m a rocker at heart. Grew up listening to Led Zeppelin, The Who ... classic rock is what they call it now. I was introduced to Christian rock by my cousin, Sharon. My first Christian rock experience was Atlanta Fest when I saw this new group — Third Day — playing in front of about 50 people at an outdoor picnic area.
